    Default Model 3 CG Calculations

    Hello, I recently purchased a Model 3 and would like to check the weight/CG on it. I have no idea what the procedures are for weighing the plane or doing the CG calculations. Is there a program or document available to do the calculations? I also do not know what the acceptable CG envelope is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    About the only 2 things I know that will be helpful is that the datum for the cg is the leading edge of the wing and the level point is the floorboards.

    Your weight and balance sheet that should have come with the aircraft should have the other pertinent info regarding cg range etc.

    This forum is more specific to the model 4 and later. You'll probably have better luck asking on avidfoxflyers.com.
